I already dropped their freshman standouts, Josie Cramer Josie Cramer 5'8" | PG Vista Ridge | 2027 State TX and Jadyn Burrow yet here are OTHERS
2025
Kianna Wormly Kianna Wormly 5'9" | SF Vista Ridge | 2025 State TX – plays multiple positions and has shown how important being “long and athletic” which is the base, really is. She rebounds and defends inside the paint against taller players yet her scoring around the basket, putbacks included, and after-contact is special. She can also defend “on the ball” as well as attack and finish, at times acrobatically plus she can nail the jumper
Abby Seitz Abby Seitz 5'9" | CG Vista Ridge | 2025 State TX – I’ve had my SIGHTS on her since she left me somewhat speechless as a freshman yet her mindset of “you won’t outwork me” is second to none. She’s one of the toughest players I’ve seen in my over a score, I truly have been out here that long, of being involved, and her clutch shooting and scoring, as well as understanding how to play multiple positions effectively is no joke. She can rebound and take it coast to coast to score or dish yet her court vision is solid across the board. Her defense is also strong and she understands how to take charges by setting the offensive player up
Sayler Bourland Sayler Bourland 5'7" | SF Vista Ridge | 2025 State TX – runs the 1 effectively yet can score but watching her comprehend “controlling the tempo” grabbed my attention years ago as she handled defensive pressure very well early, but on the flip, she can apply heat baseline to baseline as well as in the set. She also has solid court vision, understands how to direct traffic, and can score off the dribble and from the outside
Ella Nixon Ella Nixon 6'0" | SF Vista Ridge | 2025 State TX -is one of the most improved players in her class and watching her toy with double-doubles every chance I caught her during last club season told me a lot about what she would bring to the table. Well her table hasn’t been set, I’m excited about her upside because of her “poise under pressure” and understanding of how to score in the flow, yet she can also flip and drop jumpers as well as attack and finish down the stretch
Nadine Adeleke Nadine Adeleke 5'8" | SG Vista Ridge | 2026 TX and Nadia Adeleke Nadia Adeleke 5'10" | SG Vista Ridge | 2026 TX are the TWINS and their games mirror each other as they get older but here’s why they will be an X factor. They do whatever is needed and their energy, especially on the defensive end, can change the momentum. They both rebound and play the passing lane, yet they too enjoy taking charges and seeing both improve on their midrange game help round out the nucleus of what’s coming up
